Colfax, WA 99111 (Google Maps Link)

Located on the outskirts of Colfax, this 2.5-mile-long unpaved pathway follows the route of a former rail line, stretching through a natural corridor along the banks of the Palouse River. The grade is essentially flat, making it an easy outing for anyone who wants a leisurely stroll, bicycle, or horseback ride. Visitors can take in striking basalt formations and may catch glimpses of local wildlife along the way. The setting is generally quiet and can be enjoyed in every season.
